About Durham

Durham, North Carolina, home to the Research Triangle Park, the Durham Bulls baseball team and Duke University. Durham lies in North Carolina’s central piedmont about 140 miles from the Appalachians, 130 miles from the Atlantic coast, and 25 miles from the Virginia border. The moderate climate allows for outdoor activities like golf, tennis, and hiking almost year-round in the nearly thirty square mile, single-city county. The city had an early influence in the civil rights movement and is well known for its historic role in the sit-in movements of the 1950’s and 60’s.

In recent years downtown Durham has undergone remarkable redevelopment and revitalization. Some would even call it an economic and cultural renaissance of sorts. The American Tobacco Campus is a great example of 21st century investment in Durham.
